Overall it was a pleasant tour of the Porto cellars. The tour is about 40 minutes long and very informative about the history and making of the Porto wine. The only negative was the video at the end that explained everything the tour guy had just told us (minus the Portuguese accent) I’d still recommend the tour because like he said.. the best part is the tasting at the end. You get to try the classic white Porto and the tawny reserve Porto.

Did the tour where you get to see where the Port is stored in the barrels and a tasting. There was a video at the end that pretty much covered everything that was said in the tour which was strange, they should have done the video first so you could then understand the tour more. The Port tasted good

The tour is very routine, packed and commercial, but I guess that's what you get at the most recognised wine house in Porto. The tasting at the end included a 10 year tawny so not a bad value for money.

Very commercial tour. We enjoyed going into the cellars and seeing the giant barrels, vintages, and various tools. The guide was pleasant. Go to basically any of the other wineries for a better experience. Kopke has a gorgeous tasting room and their products were more our taste. Their port tastings are served with chocolates and water. We were on the English tour. The weirdest thing was at the end of the tour, we were shown a video described by our guide as being ‘partially in Spanish and in English’ but it was 10 min of Spanish with roughly 4 sentences of English in total and no English subtitles. When watching the video, we were together with a Spanish tour and it really just seemed like the guides simply wanted us to finish the tour so they grouped us together and picked the language of the first group to arrive. The video at the end had lovely imagery though and would have been nice to know what they were saying...

We went on a tour of Sandemans through an tour company which included a tasting. I enjoyed the first half of the tour. Our guide showed us the barrels and explained almost everything there is to know about how port is made. However, for the the second half of the tour we were shown a video in Spanish about the Douro wine region. There was our group and a much smaller Spanish group. We couldn't understand why they hadnt even provided subtitles for the video as it seemed like it might have been interesting. The tasting was great and again the guide was great. But overall it also seemed a little short and the video was disappointing.
